Your files and privacy
Where files are stored
Original files are saved in private Lovable Cloud storage under your account. Extracted text, filenames and descriptions are stored in your account’s library for searching. Access rules restrict file reads and changes to the signed-in owner.
Text extraction on your device
Image OCR and PDF text extraction run in your browser, not through paid AI extraction APIs. The resulting text is then saved to your cloud library. English image OCR is currently supported; scanned PDFs without a text layer may have no searchable text.
Local copies and deletion
Viewed files may be cached in this browser for faster access. Signing out clears that local file cache. Delete a file or clear your library to remove its original and library entry; these actions affect your library across devices. This is not a promise of immediate erasure from service backups.
Demo and shared devices
The public demo uses fictional samples and does not read your library. Sign out when using a shared device. These notes describe the current file handling; they are not an independent security audit or a complete legal privacy policy.
